Three implant designs were used to treat posterior partial edentulism. A total of 799 implants (563 Osseotite, 65 Straumann
SLA
,171 Endopore
SPS
) were placed in 345 patients.
SPS
implants were used in sites with less bone, had shorter lengths, and functioned longer than the threaded implant designs. Comparing implant losses,
SPS
implants had a higher failure rate (9.3%) compared with Osseotite (4.0%) or
SLA
(0%) implants.
SPS
implant losses generally occurred as late failures, while Osseotite losses were early failures. However, among surviving implants,
SPS
implants had less crestal bone loss at all time intervals compared with both of the threaded implant designs.
